About the Instructor 

Cathy Peters love for nature has guided her to the amazing realm of paper art and flowers. She has discovered that this medium is about geometry, dimensions, and modeling—the perfect pairing of science and art.   

As she continues her journey towards perfecting artistic, realistic paper flowers, she has found it rewarding to share what she has learned with others. Her favorite moments are the looks of surprise on a student's face when they finish a flower and realize they turned a pile of paper into a flower!
